An away day is half logistics, half nerves. Here is a simple checklist for Leeds fans heading to Arsenal, so the only thing left to worry about is the result.
Before you leave
- Tickets and ID. Check your ticket is on your phone or printed, and carry photo ID.
- Travel. Book trains early and check for engineering works. London stations are busy on matchdays.
- Charge your phone. Pack a small power bank. Tickets, maps and train times all live on it.
- Cash and card. Keep a card handy and a little cash for the odd stall.
What to wear
You will spend a lot of the day outside: queues, platforms, the walk to the ground. Layers beat one heavy coat. A hoodie under a waterproof is hard to beat, and you can take the coat off once you are in.
Our #LUFC Hoodie is £29.99 and a good base layer for the day. If it is a milder one, a tee does the job: try the Leeds, Leeds, Leeds Repeated lightweight tee at £16.99, or the Bielsa "I Feel Extremely Happy" tee at £17.99.
On the way home
Check the last trains before the game, not after. Charge your phone, have a drink of water and enjoy the journey back, whatever the score.
